No biggie guys we will convene some other time, happy thanksgiving, I'm definitely thankful for the friends I made on here. This will be the first thanksgiving on my own, a chance to truly be thankful, no awkward dinner, no unappreciative people(relatives) with their ego driven back-and-forths, no gossiping women taking pictures just to update their fb, it'll be just me, my bike, and the earth. Taking in the day, thinking about my master plan(to save the world), and hopefully running into some less fortunate ones, to donate a little of my time to, and do some meditating(counting my breath)...

I've been on the fence, mainly cause I hate to part with my money. But I finally ordered the Ohlins TR805 rear shock today. It's going to take a couple weeks, but can't wait.

Ohlins, nice! Also planning to do the front end eventually for better suspension balance? I did have the luxury to test ride a new speed triple r, if it handles anything like that it - you won't be disappointed to say the least!

Good eye. Yes the wheelbase is slightly shorter because of the new spring. Its a bit longer then the old one, and it definitely steering quicker then before. Should be slightly less stable on the higher speeds but I can't tell at the moment.
